PACO'S CUSTOM FISHING RODS - Company Message
TESTIMONIALS

I could not have had a better experience than I did working with Paco to build my first custom rod, a Lamiglas 1321-M. He spent the time to get to know the type of fishing I did and then walked me through the process showing me the different options available. The rod got built fast, the price was very competitive and the craftsmanship was flawless.  When it was time to have a 9 footer built, there was no question who was getting my business…and that rod has become my spring go-to rod. If you are in the market for having a custom rod built, go talk to Paco. You won't be disappointed.

Let me start of by saying that I have had five custom rods built by Paco and another one stripped down and redone.  In my experiences, his work is second to none.  As an angler who fishes from the surf, jetties, boat in both fresh and saltwater environments, I tend to beat up on my rods and perform very little if no maintenance on them.  I don't take very good care of my gear at all, and time after time these rods perform flawlessly.  I love his custom grips and his heavy duty wrapping of the guides,  these rods he builds are geared towards catching those fish of a lifetime!  Paco is meticulous in his work.  I would and have recommended him to others and will continue to do so.

Throughout all years of my surf casting learning curve... and still learning, I've always desired of having high performance surf casting rods that are specifically designed for different purposes and made just for my body structure. Paul aka Paco has built all my surfcasting rods from plugging to chunking. I am very happy with all the outcomes from his work and they never let me down in the surf. Thank You.-

Paco;   Thanks so much for straightening out my problems with one of my surf rods. I thought that rod would never perform correctly. However, the job you've done allows me to achieve the distance, accuracy, and fish fighting qualities I expect from that blank. Also, the wraps and other components look great! It has always been one of my favorite rods and I look forward once again to enjoying many hours of surf fishing with it this year. Many thanks.

Paco built all the rods that I use for my surf guiding service. He is a  true craftsmen who took the time to listen to my ideas, while at the same time considering the needs of my costumers. From guide placements, cork wrap and reel seat placements, everything was done professionally and on time. I could not be happier with the finished rods and I can wholeheartedly recommend that you give him a call if you are considering a custom rod made or to have one repaired.

Custom rods are not for everyone and at times it can be confusing and personal.  Regardless of your needs, Paco has a good understanding and he will guide you to satisfaction. I should know because I am extremely demanding and yet, he is resourceful, accommodating and every rod was balanced to perfection.

Paco, Thanks for the rod, I was looking at it and it is beautiful. A real work of art.
I start to smile when I see it !
This spring I will show it to the fish. Hope they like it.

The first day I met Paco, I knew he understood what I desired for a Lamiglas custom rod. As a designer for the Lamiglas Pro Staff with an intimate knowledge of dynamics and style of fishing, Paco builds each custom rod to suite your individual needs.  A customer can have confidence his/her needs are the focus of Paco’s dedicated craftsmanship. I own many “Paco” rods, each with unique specifications for different applications. He has built more rods than I can count for customers of my shop, Cow Harbor Bait & Tackle. It is exhilarating to see the expression of “joy” when my customers pick up their very own custom rod. Thank you Paul for all the hard work and dedication you put into your custom rods. You are a true friend and master rod builder.
